June 24-28Surry, Maine

The required five-day residency for all IHE M.Ed. and M.A. students is one of the highlights of the graduate program. An energizing week that includes practical, hands-on learning, it offers students an opportunity to practice and explore humane education issues, skills, and activities with fellow students and faculty.

Residency takes place at the Institute for Humane Education’s beautiful ocean-front campus in Surry, Maine. It includes dynamic, interactive training, which helps students hone presentation skills, practice peer-teaching and create community. Students meet their distance-learning faculty in person and develop lifelong relationships with other humane educators.
